Please, IF YOU HAVE THE ORIGINAL VERSIONS OF 1-5, SEE THE PREVIOUS POST. It will save you some time downloading.

GARO may have been less work, but it was non-trivial, so going over those 25 episodes was a bit of a learning process. Picking up a person to do a QC pass means I have to view each of these episodes only three times instead of four, which cuts down on burn out and speeds things up considerably. It shouldn't take forever to get the next batch out the way it has between the release of 5 and now.

Oh, also, every release from here on out will be a complete series (thus far) batch torrent, with the same directory name, so don't rename it until it's all over. This means that as long as anybody is seeding, they're seeding the whole thing, so there's no accidentally finding the files after a long period but unable to access them like with sendspace. There are probably downsides to this release method, but frankly I don't really care that much.

If you have the original files unzip this, put all the files in the same directory, and double click the .bat. When it finishes, feel free to wipe out the old files. Oh, you should probably rename the directory that's holding the v2s to [GomenRider]_Masked_Rider_Agito. It might be helpful in a little bit.

If you DON'T have the original files this will not help you in the least. Stay tuned for a bit, you aren't SOL.

I'm not sure if anybody still reads this. I'm sure everybody has long since given up on seeing Agito from us. Well, you shouldn't, because 6-10 are awaiting a QC pass before getting them into your hot little hands, along with some v2s of 1-5 (with patches for those of you who have had the originals, no need to redownload). Many things have been promised about rate of release in the past, so it's easy to not believe this. So here's a peace offering: all of GARO, cleaned up and ready for consumption.

At some point, some anonymous OCR ripped the subtitles from T-N's GARO release. These were kind of dogshit, what with the chans, samas, and the fact the timing was way off. That said, it was a much better starting point than the Agito project.

Similarly, some other anonymous posted DVD raws of the series. These aren't really encoded to our standards, but they're head and shoulders above the T-N tv rips, so it's definitely a worthwhile upgrade if not a perfect one.

Thanks to our friends at Gattai for their help in this release. Enjoy!
